April 8 – Willows along Ottawa River Bikepath
April 21st – Hogs Back Park
The concession pavilion at Hog’s Back Park was designed by architects Abra and Balharrie, and was completed in 1955. According to an information panel that was added as part of a 2011 rehabilitation project, the style here is “festival architecture”, and apparently is ‘typical of this ebullient postwar era.’ The panel goes on to note that the ‘striking, colourful “folded” roof of the canopy, and the structure’s ultra-modern appearance were well appreciated when unveiled.’
